h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

How are things? I never see you around anymore.

Have you seen the Seville meet thread? Any chance of you coming? Math said he and L might be there, still waiting to hear back from him.

Apparently *very* cheap flights can be found at Ryanair (direct Stansted to Seville).

Anyhow, it would be lovely if you could make it.


az

I haven't looked at it recently, as it was at a time when I am at work.

It's nothing personal - just been busy with my non-virtual life

Jez

Yes, nothing personal taken.

Just that you are - really and truly - in my thoughts sometimes, just because you show up there. Why? Hecked if I know - you just end up there.

Anyhow, just wanted to remind you about the meet in Seville and to tell you that it would be wonderful if you could make it here for that weekend.

Any chance of that?


az

I haven't even got a passport

Foreign travel has been a long way down my agenda, recently.

Sorry

Jez

Yeah, no doubt.

What happened with your mom? Sorry if that question might seem strange, just that we haven't talked for so long.


az

She's very ill. Not coherent. Not able to move.

Please let there be only a lttle time left. Please.

Jez

for both of you.

How are you holding up otherwise? Job okay? Happy with the house changes?


az

Playing with the garden at the moment, clearing a lot of old growth, planning a big communal BBQ/ritual fire area at the back of the back garden (which is 72ft long) and generally hurting my back and hands.

Job is paying well, and that's all you can say about teaching nowadays.

I am planning on going four-day part-time from September, and using the time to write, take photographs, sell jewellery and photographs, and maybe do living history presentations in primary schools.

Have fun on your meeting

Jez

Hi there,

Saw you were online and thought I'd say hi again.

How are things going?

And what's this about jewellery? Got any photos you could send me?

Your plan for September sounds very good indeed.


az

The jewellery bit is re-selling, and will probably not happen.

The garden is pretty much done, and (we are having a heatwave) needing water for the new plants. I have a party coming up next weekend, so there might be photos if anyone has a digicamera (I don't).

Just the house to clean, now...
